Passionate Test Laboratory Specialist who enjoys a wide variety of tasks
We imagine that you have a degree as engineer or similar, but this is not a requirement – your personality and attitude is what we care about the most.
It would be an advantage if you have experience with procedures/systems/documentation.
We also imagine that you can read and interpretate relevant regulations and standards – and capability and interest in learning and developing new test systems.
If you have experience with ISO 17025 it is a significant advantage, and knowledge of test laboratory tools and measuring devices as well as experience with Measurement System Analysis is also advantageous.
Written, and verbal communication skills in both English is a requirement, as our corporate language is English. Most likely you can communicate short and accurate in writing.
Also, theoretical knowledge on flow, pressure and measurement technology and the ability to apply it in practise will be highly advantageous.
We offer you:
A diverse job with a possibility to be deeply involved in defining the future framework of our Test Laboratories. You will have the freedom to plan and prioritize activities – and as member of our test team you can look forward to having major influence covering our total test setup and the shaping of your own job.
